Bulky Waste

Furniture and Unwanted Household Goods

Many items are thrown away each year, which could be repaired and reused. Reusable items such as furniture, bric-a-brac, baths, sinks and electrical appliances are salvaged from the County Councils' Recycling Centres for reuse and at some Centres these are sold back to the public.

If you would like to recycle furniture there are many not-for-profit projects in Devon that reuse or recycle furniture, for example sofas, beds and wardrobes, and domestic appliances, e.g. fridges, washing machines etc.

Items are refurbished and passed to people on low incomes for reuse. As well as providing a wide range of household items to people in need, the Furniture Projects also reduce the amount of waste that goes to landfill by extending the life of otherwise discarded items.
